Ministry, whether it be full-time or not, can be overwhelming at times. This episode, we look more deeply at the story of Elijah and his ministry burn-out. As you'll see, God was able to encourage and uplift Elijah at a time when, to put it frankly, ministry simply sucked.

This week, we take a break from any series to offer encouragement and a challenge for those who may have given up on the Christian life.

At last, we made it! The final "flavor" of Christians - homemade. This episode is a challenge for all of those who may be at a different point in their Christian life. Homemade ice cream takes hard work - it takes churning, time and patience. Likewise, becoming a "homemade ice cream" Christian takes faith, molding, patience, time, maturity - it's not easy! It might even hurt a little, but in the end, the end product tastes so good!

Truth be told, there are some who come to church on a regular basis that are not Christians. These people can be considered "fat free" because they lack the "fat" of Christianity. There are two kinds of "fat free" people: those who are seeking a relationship with Christ but haven't found it yet; and those who have grown up religiously but have never made a personal commitment to Christ. Gaining that personal relationship with Christ doesn't require church membership, or doing good deeds, or paying money to the church. He only requires that you have faith and ultimately accept Him as your Savior. Good stuff!

Smoothies, although they may be rare, are those who take advantage of the church and try to make a quick buck. More often than not, these kinds of people often cause more damage than good and usually only benefit themselves. Keep in mind that we're not talking about those sincere programs out there, but rather those whose goal is to profit off of other Christians.

This is probably the most common Christian - the "chocolate sundae", Sunday only Christian. Have you been here, or are you here right now? I'm sure nearly everyone has at one point in their life. Having a lack of commitment, having the wrong attitude, or maybe simply being apathetic can all contribute to being a "chocolate sundae" Christian. Realize that all Christians have the responsibility to use their spiritual gifts and contribute to the body throughout the week. It's a continuous walk with Christ, not just on Sunday.
